Here are the solutions for the questions from the image:

8. In figure 4, AC is the diameter of a circle with centre O.
Given that angle BAC = 37∘37^\circ and angle ACD = 46∘46^\circ.

Part a· 2 steps

Find the value of Angle x

  1. Identify angle x.

    Angle x is ∠ABC\angle ABC.

  2. Apply the circle theorem for an angle in a semicircle.

    Since AC is the diameter, the angle subtended by the diameter at any point on the circumference is 90∘90^\circ.
    Therefore, ∠ABC=90∘\angle ABC = 90^\circ.

    x=90∘x = 90^\circ

    The value of angle x is 90∘\boxed{90^\circ}.

Part b

44∘44^\circ

Find the value of Angle y

  1. Identify angle y.

    Angle y is ∠CAD\angle CAD.

  2. Apply the circle theorem for an angle in a semicircle.

    Since AC is the diameter, the angle subtended by the diameter at point D on the circumference is 90∘90^\circ.
    Therefore, ∠ADC=90∘\angle ADC = 90^\circ.

  3. Use the sum of angles in triangle ADC.

    In △ADC\triangle ADC, the sum of angles is 180∘180^\circ.

    ∠CAD+∠ADC+∠ACD=180∘\angle CAD + \angle ADC + \angle ACD = 180^\circ y+90∘+46∘=180∘y + 90^\circ + 46^\circ = 180^\circ
  4. Solve for y.

    y+136∘=180∘y + 136^\circ = 180^\circ y=180∘−136∘y = 180^\circ - 136^\circ y=44∘y = 44^\circ

    The value of angle y is 44∘\boxed{44^\circ}.

Part c

99∘99^\circ

Find Angle DCB

  1. Identify the components of ∠DCB\angle DCB.

    Angle DCB is the sum of ∠DCA\angle DCA (which is ∠ACD\angle ACD) and ∠ACB\angle ACB.

    ∠DCB=∠ACD+∠ACB\angle DCB = \angle ACD + \angle ACB
  2. Find ∠ACB\angle ACB.

    Consider △ABC\triangle ABC. We know ∠ABC=90∘\angle ABC = 90^\circ (from part a) and ∠BAC=37∘\angle BAC = 37^\circ (given).
    The sum of angles in △ABC\triangle ABC is 180∘180^\circ.

    ∠ACB=180∘−∠ABC−∠BAC\angle ACB = 180^\circ - \angle ABC - \angle BAC ∠ACB=180∘−90∘−37∘\angle ACB = 180^\circ - 90^\circ - 37^\circ ∠ACB=53∘\angle ACB = 53^\circ
  3. Calculate ∠DCB\angle DCB.

    ∠DCB=46∘+53∘\angle DCB = 46^\circ + 53^\circ ∠DCB=99∘\angle DCB = 99^\circ

    Angle DCB is 99∘\boxed{99^\circ}.
